Imagine you where in their shoes and you do value human life. What would you realistically do? Honest question, I’d like to think I’d do something different then them, but I can not think of a way that does not cut ties completely. I think the best I could do, is secretly support opposition behind the scenes, not sure how much of that is happening though.
I think for a lot of them, they don’t agree with most of his policies, but as CEO of such big companies you can not openly oppose him. They would lose a fortune, so instead they try to get the most out of it for their company.
Also, you gotta see it from their view. They are stuck with him now for 3 more years. In 3 years AI will keep getting bigger and may change a lot, loosing those 3 years because of trying to make a stand, might mean lossing your position on the table and your influence on its development completely.
All that said, I’m not saying it’s good that that’s what they are doing, but I can see some strategy in doing it like that
Isn’t that how early access works?
